I was able to successfully perform the camera skipping test on mine with no issues for 72Hz using USB-C from X670 mobo (fed from dgpu). This monitor paired with Ryzen 7950X3D and EKWB 6900 XT (XTX version) is a very nice experience. Once you fix the gpu driver downclocking bugs and get the GPU...

Patriot Scorch NVME drives run fine in actual NVME PCI to USB 3.1 enclosures. That extra notch (because they are only 2x lanes) aren't an issue. In fact the dual lane scortch drives pair better with the enclosures as on faster quad lane drives you lose the extra speed on the enclosure so they...

I own 8 of the seagate 4TB drives in RAID5 setups. 5 of the normal NAS variety (ST4000VN000) (designed for 24/7 but run lower power) and 3 more are the higher performance more enterprise focus models (must have airflow). (ST4000NM0033) No issues with any of the drives. I have had 3 of them for 5...

I've been very past the past few days but I got my PLEX card modded up with a nice fan and have started making benchmarks, including RAID0. Here is just a bench on single drive. (1 drive bench) Also I saw that right now the drives are even cheaper on Amazon than before. I just bought 2 more...

I just ordered 2 of these and will be plugging them into a supermicro AOC-SHG3-4M2P for some RAID testing on AM4. Might have some benchmarks this weekend. Might get 2 more once I verify the PLEX is stable. (got hot on first initial testing)

I disassembled a mono-price cable back in 2012 and pin 20 was not connected on both ends. Their cables are perfectly safe to use and I have tested many different ones they make and they all worked.

Well these kits are plug and play, just order the correct laptop lcd, order the controller board with the right lcd program, then just plug the connections in: 1 or 2 plugs go into the LCD a 12 volt power supply goes into the board (or solder on a molex plug and connect it to a PC power supply)...

Would a laptop display with a controller board plugged in count? Modern laptop 15-18 inch displays are about 1/4" thick and an LCD controller board is about 1/2" thick. I am currently working on getting some 17" inch WUXGA LED laptop screens working on a RM5451 like you can get for cheap on...

Your wasting your time trying to OC on these boards, especially with a quad core. Not to mention RAM is too expensive on these. You should grab Zotac's newer Z68 board (the one for overclocking), a 2500k, and 8 GB DDR3 RAM. On these ITX 9300 boards you can probably only take say a 3 GHz quad up...

Check the back of the motherboard. It will have a number on that back that identifies which PCB version. There was the old initial version, the new G version with dual link DVI, an overclocked version with a black heatsink (laptop version of the northbridge chip?), and a version with DDR3 memory...

I would recommend the Zotac board after having just set one up. It has display port which might come in handy, USB 3 header. The BIOS is pretty nice. The wifi worked just fine for me. It might not be super duper fast but you can always upgrade to any half or full size laptop wifi card. You could...

I have updated the topic now that I got everything running and did some tests. I hope you guys find this information useful. The VRM stuff stays within reasonable temps using the intel cooler. (I think it shows up in hardware monitor in the 60C range) There are 3 options for GPU overclocking, a...

Here the results of running Linpack with my 8 GB DDR3 1333 CAS7 kit from Gskill. (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231440) I downloaded the updated linpack from Intel that uses AVX. This is with the stock Intel cooler.

Edit: So basically after enough testing I figured a few things out. You need to install Windows 7 from a DVD (not USB) and you need to set the BIOS to IDE or AHCI mode (AHCI preferred). You also need a working DVD or blu ray drive, or you might get weird errors. ;) Before you install Windows you...

I will probably get a Sandy bridge ITX in the future with a good P67 or Z68 board. Something like that Zotac H67 that could handle 130 watt TDP and OCing would be nice. Maybe someday I will finish this home made laptop project with Sandy Bridge...

I have decided to get the ASRock Extreme 4 mobo if I were to build a Sandy Bridge machine right now. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157217 You could fit 2 GPUs in SLI and have a either a fast RAID card or a 3rd GPU installed in slot 7 for CUDA/Physx. You could...

I have tried a few variations of the Zotac 9300 board with my Q9650, and the best I got was about 3.3 Ghz with one board, and about 3.15GHz with another one (The OCed board, even running at a lower clock speed or with the GPU disabled). Even with water cooling the mobo just couldn't handle the...

I wouldn't try running a Q6600 on this board at 400 MHz FSB. You will probably fry the board with the power draw. (someone fried a board OCing the same CPU) You should get a Q9650 or Q9550. With my Q9650 and H50 the max I can get with the IGPU on is 366.6 MHz FSB. Later on I'll try with the IGPU...

Sorry to double post, but I spotted on Zotac's website a new version, the GF9300-K-E. It appears to be the same as the G-E version but with DDR3 1333 support instead of DDR2 800 support. With the prices of DDR2 going up sounds it like the best buy for anyone who hasn't bought yet and wants to...

You can try windows 7 for 30 days, just don't enter a CD key during the install. Students can get windows 7 pro for $30. All you need is a .edu email.

I had that same exact issue as well but it went away. Wish I knew what fixed it. What OS are you using? I was running XP64 when I had the issue.

Try updating your graphics card drivers.

Make sure you boot with the HDMI/DVI connection plugged in, then there should be an option to select Nvidia audio as your sound device. It didn't show up for me at first either, but it does now.

Could you post up some pictures of that? Grease marks could be from soldering, although probably not if they baked it...

I think the motherboard will enumerate the digital ports first, then the analog. Once you load up the operating system the drivers kick in and then anything goes. (as long as its 2 monitors at a time only, that is) With 3 monitors plugged up you'll be able to choose which 2 you want to use...

"Whatever workload a graphics board is handling, at the end of the day the final image finds its way to the card's display engine so that we can be pushed out to whatever display is connected to a given output. In short then, the only requirement needed to get Eyefinity working on AMD's part is...

I once hooked up separate monitors to both the HDMI and DVI on this board and it ran them independently. I also simultaneously ran 2 monitors over DVI from a GTX 275 card plugged into the board. (so 4 monitors total) All were fully separate monitors in windows with a different image displayed...

If you can fit the Corsair H50's radiator in there with an intake fan go for it. It would be nice to see some more pictures than what is posted here but I think it will fit. http://www.thermaltake.com/product_info.aspx?PARENT_CID=C_00000047&id=C_00000254&name=LANBOX&ovid= I think you could...

To give you guys a heads up on my overclocking. I sold my first revision board that I bought in like April/May to a friend and we put a E3200 in it and overclocked it easily to 3.2 GHz. I had to go and my friend is a noob at overclocking so I'll have to wait till I get back over there to OC it...

You can overclock the current board's GPU in the BIOS or using standard tools for OCing nvidia cards. You need really good cooling on the northbridge chip though. Need to at least attach a fan to that zotac heatsink, or replace it or whatever.

Has anyone tried the Corsair H50 water cooler with this board? It should fit I would think. My Q9650 needs some better cooling. It will be interesting if the new model supports better OCing.

You can easily run an OCed Q9650/QX9650 (it should run in this) and a GTX 295 (or GTX 3xx/ ATI equivilent) in this motherboard with 4 or 8 GB of dual channel RAM, I'm pretty sure that counts for enthusiast in a small form factor PC. Using riser adapters you can have a graphics card oriented...

I had no problems using both the DVI and HDMI at the same time. Also had a GTX 275 hooked up running 2 more monitors over DVI.

You can overclock the 9300 but you will definitely need some good active cooling. You may not be able to push it very far though. (overclocking it up to 9400 speeds even with good cooling might be unstable) You haven't needed to use a coolbits tweak since forever...

3 drive RAID0 with seagate momentus 7200.4 500 GB laptop drives (average 87 MB/s each in single mode). http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/BillFleming/CustomLaptop/zotacITXRAID0x3long.png (At this low speed I wouldn't bother with 3 drives) RAID5 with same drives...

While there is overclocking info in other topics in this forum section, it is hard to find in the long threads so we should consolidate it here. State what LGA775 mITX motherboard you are using, CPU model, FSB/CPU clock attained and what BIOS settings you used. (different from defaults) If...

I have one of those newegg adapters and while it is useful the cables get really crowded and the adapter is very tall. If you have a thin case it won't fit without modification. It is 2 inches long which is taller than any component on the Zotac board. (even my quad core's 1U fan+heatsink) I'd...

For those of you that haven't bought this board yet and intend to not use the wireless G card: It does NOT come installed out of the box. You have to screw it in yourself with 2 small screws. For a wireless N alternative I'd recommend something with a real antenna like these 2 adapters...

As I said in a previous post a USB dvd burner runs just fine. I can boot from it and install windows and everything on my board. Also this is the only method you can use besides a flash drive or network boot to install from a cd to a three hard drive RAID. I would definitely recommend a USB...

I'm pretty sure I could see the boot up and BIOS using just HDMI. (no other video devices hooked up) It might be a problem with your TV.
